Which means that the big trees which the lumberjacks cut down are cut up by the lumherjills, who are for the most part wives or sweethearts of the 'jacks. The war introduced 'jills to the lumber crimp, hut peace has not taken them away. Instead, the employers Lumberjlllt In lumbermllli of Coos bay. breeches stocking; are getting to like the. 'jills more and more every day. Proof of this may be had in the phonographs and radios which have been installed for the benefit of the 'jills.

This time the historical building which wit born January 20, ISTm, will find its final resting place, it hopes, on the banks "f the millrace. another his toric old fixture of Eugene, nt the end of Seventh avenue east. The building was erected for the Cfluntr by A. A. Smith in Inki, and occupied the renter of the court house Kiiim. In 1SW. after n leg:il battle that involved most of the town, it was : moved from the center to make room i (or the passage of Eighth avenue nnd Oik street. The original structure wis made by hand, of haudhewn tiin brs. and was the most imposing or rhiterttiral structure in the county for ttcny yesrs.

May 20.OP) The pop ulation of Lisbon has fallen recently under the terrorizing influence of the Hed Legion, a secret society of malefactors notorious for Iminb out rages, assassinations end robberies. Several groups of these bandits have, during the last few weeks, carried out their exploits in broad daylight. entering the principal national hank and demanding, with pointed pistols, large sums of money, nnd imposing silence by threats of venjeeance on the clerks and their families. A few days ago, in a busy thor attacked the collector, others dis charged pistols in the most approved movio style, effectively covering the retreat of the attacking party to side car, in which they made tiioir npe. As these repeated occurrences are being carried out without the Inuned-1 inte intervention of the police, and without arrests being made, the news papers have censured the negligence of the police. Now, however, the authorities have arrested the prinrU pal persons implicated in the assault on the collector and several other membern of the Hed legion. At the same time nil the newspaper print a statement from the commissioner gen eral of police in which he protests against the injustice of the refger ences made in this corporation, lie affirms that the impldity of the eriminnls Is due tn the terror and cowardice of the victims, who refuse to lay complaints against them, As soon as the members of f,h Heil Lesion were arrested dynamite bombs exploded in various quarters of the city, fortunately causing no loss estimated at $50,000 to $73,000, with insurance of probably $1,000. Property destroyed includes ,hc general merchandise store; hotel and residence of F. M. Oecamp; Smith and company's drug store; Gene Smith's restaurant : 1. C. Purvey and sons pool ball and Fred H.

There is a law that says eight hours j shall constitute a day's work, more WalterVlllC Itiail man that to uo required only iu cases of emergency, when double pay shall be allowed for the overtime. The suit is brought under that law, but the county claims Hie law should not apply for the reason that the men vented to work 10 houra. About a year ago, some of the same md complained to State Lnbor Commissioner Gram, demanding over time pay, and at the request of Gov ernor Pierce, Attorney ever placed the matter before the Lane county grand jury, which did not indict the county officials, and now the labor ers have instituted civil action.
